The phase angle for the sine curve y = a sin(bx + c) is usually taken to be the value of c and the phase shift is given by −​b​​c​​.
\n" ); document.write( "We are given,
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3 + 4 sin (3x - 0.5)
\n" ); document.write( "therefore
\n" ); document.write( "phase angle is -0.5
\n" ); document.write( "phase shift is -3 * (-0.5) = 1.5\r
\n" ); document.write( "
